On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy hockey managers to stream, roster or utilize in standard leagues and/or DFS games. Players and goalies highlighted for streaming in standard leagues are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues.

Anton Lundell, C, FLA @ TB (39% rostered) - DraftKings: $4,700
Lundell has done a solid job "replacing" Aleksander Barkov as the Panthers' first line center. He notched a goal and an assist Friday and is now has nine goals, 25 points, 70 shots on net, 35 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 31 appearances. Lundell has a realistic shot at 20-goals and 50-points for the first time in his career, depending on what the Panthers do at the trade deadline.

J.T. Miller, C/RW, NYR vs. ANA (91% rostered) - DraftKings: $5,800
Miller's first full season back in New York has been a bit rougher than expected. He struggled for good portions of the early part of the season but is finding his way lately. Miller notched a pair of goals, including the overtime winner Saturday, and is now up to eight points in his last nine contests. The hot streak is bolstering Miller's chances to be named to Team USA which is being coached by the Rangers' head man, Mike Sullivan.

Adrian Kempe, RW, LA @ DAL (98% rostered) - DraftKings: $6,400
Another game, another goal for Kempe, or at least it just seems that way. Kempe has four goals and as many assists his last eight games, upping his season marks to 11 tallies and 17 helpers in 31 contests. Kempe has 139 goals the past four seasons. He does not appear to be swayed by the eight-year, $85 million contract extension he signed with the Kings in November..

Analysis: 11 streamers for Week 15 | 13 risers and sleepers

Given the volatility of this league and fantasy football in particular, these rankings will be updated up to a half hour before the Sunday afternoon games kick off. Let’s get to it.

Week 15 fantasy football quarterback rankings: Top streamers

• Minnesota Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy at Dallas Cowboys - The idea of streaming McCarthy might make you want to vomit, but he is one of the best widely available options. McCarthy is coming off a 20.4-point performance against the Commanders in which he completed 70% of his passes and threw for three touchdowns. The 22-year-old has now amassed 16.7 or more fantasy points in four of his seven starts. In Week 15, he'll take on a Cowboys defense that's allowing 3.2 more fantasy points per game to the position than any other team in the NFL.
• Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota at New York Giants - Mariota has dropped at least 16.4 fantasy points in five of his six starts, including 18.7 and 24.3 in two of his last three. He's a top streamer against a Giants defense that's ceded more than 18 fantasy points to the position in seven of their last eight games.
• New Orleans Saints QB Tyler Shough vs. Carolina Panthers - Is Tyler Shough a legitimate streaming option in the fantasy playoffs? He might just be. The rookie has eclipsed 18 fantasy points in three of his last four outings. Last week saw him rack up a career-high 55 rush yards and two tuddies on the ground. In Week 15, Shough will face a Panthers defense that he tore up for 282 yards and two touchdowns in Week 10.
• Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders at Chicago Bears - Sanders was QB2 in Week 15, posting 393 total yards and four touchdowns on his way to 34.5 fantasy points. The rookie will have a chance to build on that performance in Week 15, against a Bears team that's surrendering the ninth-most fantasy points to the position this season.

Week 15 fantasy football running back rankings: Top streamers

• New York Giants RB Devin Singletary vs. Washington Commanders - In the four weeks prior to New York's bye, Singletary was fantasy's overall RB14, averaging 12.1 half-PPR points per game. The 28-year-old averaged 15.3 opportunities (targets + carries) in his final three games before the bye, and had reached double-digits in five consecutive games. This week, he'll take on a Commanders front that's giving up the second-most fantasy points to opposing runners since Week 4.
• Washington Commanders RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. at New York Giants - In 2025, only the Bengals are surrendering more fantasy points to opposing running backs than the Giants. New York is allowing an NFL-high 6.1 yards per attempt, and Rodriguez has recorded double-digit carries in four of his last five games. While the 25-year-old offers no value in the passing game, this defense has given up the second-most yards and sixth-most touchdowns on the ground to the position. If Rodriguez ends up being inactive, both Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Jeremy McNichols offer flex appeal.
• Los Angeles Rams RB Blake Corum vs. Detroit Lions - Corum erupted for 131 yards and two touchdowns on 13 touches last week, which means he might end up in a lot of lineups in Week 15. There is reason to exercize caution, however. Kyren Williams still had a strong lead in snaps (36 to 22) and routes (18 to 9). Additionally, the Rams will be taking on a Lions team that funnels to the pass. So far in 2025, the Lions have allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs and the second-most to wideouts. Starting Corum is one way to get exposure to one of the league's most potent offenses, but don't expect another explosive performance.

Week 15 fantasy football wide receiver rankings: Top streamers

• Carolina Panthers WR Jalen Coker at New Orleans Saints - Prior to Carolina's Week 14 bye, we saw Coker lead the team with six targets. Against a tough Rams secondary, Coker caught four of his six targets for 74 yards and a touchdown. The 24-year-old has now received at least four targets in four consecutive outings. Coker will be an intriguing flex option against a Saints secondary that has ceded more than 14 half-PPR points to 10 different receivers this season.
• Green Bay Packers WR Jayden Reed at Denver Broncos - In just his first game back last week, Reed returned to his regular role as the Packers' slot receiver. Despite playing just 43% of snaps, Reed finished just two routes behind Romeo Doubs for second on the team (17 to 19), and his six touches (four receptions, two carries) were the most behind only Josh Jacobs. A tough matchup with Denver awaits, but Reed's ceiling is high compared to most other widely available players at the position.
• New Orleans Saints WR Devaughn Vele vs. Carolina Panthers - Since New Orleans returned from its Week 11 bye, Vele has been the team's clear WR1B. This past week, the 28-year-old finished tied for the team lead in snaps (54) and targets (5), while ending up with just two fewer routes than teammate Chris Olave (22 to 24). Vele led the team in receiving for a second consecutive week, though his 3-40-0 line was a far cry from his 8-93-1 line in Week 13. The veteran will be a decent flex option against a Carolina team that's allowed double-digit half-PPR points to 10 wide receivers in as many games.
• New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte vs. Buffalo Bills - Boutte is the ultimate high-risk, high-reward flex play at wideout. In 10 healthy contests, Bouttle has posted at least 11.5 half-PPR points five times and fewer than six points on four occasions. He's a widely-available top-40 play against a Bills defense that's surrendered double-digit half-PPR points to 12 wideouts in 2025.

Week 15 fantasy football tight end rankings: Top streamers

• Baltimore Ravens TE Isaiah Likely at Cincinnati Bengals - In 2024, the Los Angeles Rams gave up a league-leading 15.9 fantasy points per game to tight ends. The 2025 Bengals are beating that number by an astonishing 8.2 half-PPR points. Cincinnati has surrendered 325 more yards and six more touchdowns to the position than any other team in the NFL. Meanwhile, Likely has out-targeted veteran Mark Andrews over the last two games, and he has outgained him by 64 yards. The 25-year-old could also easily have three touchdowns over those two contests. No one should be shocked if Likely finishes as a top-three tight end in Week 15.
• Cincinnati Bengals TE Mike Gesicki vs. Baltimore Ravens - Last year, in the five games that Tee Higgins missed, Gesicki averaged 7.2 targets, 62.4 receiving yards, and 10.8 half-PPR points. Fresh off a game in which he nearly doubled his season's output, Gesicki is a borderline TE1 with Higgins out of the lineup.

Week 15 fantasy football rankings: PPR and non-PPR

With all the talk about how great rookie tight end Tyler Warren has been this season (and it's well-deserved), there's another rookie who's been almost as good − but who has been avaialable on most fantasy football waiver wires for more weeks than he's been rostered.

Harold Fannin of the Browns is coming off his best day as a pro in Week 14, catching eight of 11 targets for 114 yards and a touchdown. And he's better positioned to help fantasy managers win a title with Warren's quarterback situation in Indianapolis a huge question mark.

On the season, Warren is the TE4 (12.4 PPR average), while Fannin is the TE6 (11.1 PPR average).

It's been a long season in Philadelphia, with the Eagles showing inconsistent results on offense and the team currently enduring a three-game losing streak.

However, one bright spot during the skid has been star wide receiver A.J. Brown, who's recorded three consecutive 100-yard receiving games and four straight with double-digit targets. Brown started very slowly this season (and made his feelings about that widely known), but he's stepped up his production right when fantasy managers have needed it. And this week, he gets to face the Las Vegas Raiders.
